Summary
It wasn’t alive.
You had to keep telling yourself that. Repeating it like a mantra over and over again, in the hopes that you’d force yourself to believe it. That no matter how much the robot screamed in pain, or how more and more evidence began to stack up that it was more than just fancy inanimate machinery, that it was just that; machinery. Not alive.
You had to believe it.
Otherwise, you’d have to come to terms with the fact that you were not only complicit in the suffering of another living being, but actively responsible for it.
